Solaris does not add a "_" to kernel variables.   It defines
the kernel variables "tickadj", "dosynctodr" and, "noprintf".
It does not define "tick".

The default tickadj value is 10000 us.   

I don't know what to use for tick.  Does anyone have any ideas.
What about sysconf(_SC_CLK_TC)?

settimeofday only set the second part of the time you must use adjtime
to set the micro second part of the time.

Sun had fixed gettimeofday to return the full micro second time.
Solaris 2.0 only return the time to 10 ms.

I am fairly close to having a working version of xntpd for Solaris 2.1.

Would anyone like to try it out before I send Mills the patches?

	usec_per_tick, I think... it works for me, anyhow.

	I got one to run -- but it wouldn't talk to anything! I could
query it with ntpq or xntpdc from the local host, but it wouldn't talk
to any other server on my local net, even though it resolved the
addresses. (This is under Solaris 2.0; I'll have 2.1 before the week
is out, and see if that makes a difference.)

	If you get it to actually talk to something else, I'd like to
try it.
